STATEREPOSITORY_E_STATEMENT_INPROGRESS
The scope of STATEREPOSITORY_E_STATEMENT_INPROGRESS is Windows StateRepository: a prepared statement was reused or finalized before stepping to completion or resetting it. Preserve 0x80670002 beside the returning call before cleanup or retry creates a more generic secondary failure.
Wrong turns
STATEREPOSITORY_E_BUSY_RETRY is external contention; STATEMENT_INPROGRESS is misuse of a statement already owned by the caller.
Do not add sleep-based retries while the unfinished statement remains active.
Object and state
Prepared statements have a lifecycle: bind, step until done, then reset or finalize. Leaving a row-producing statement partially stepped can retain locks and make later use of the same connection appear mysteriously busy.
Capture before retry
- SQL or statement identity.
- Last sqlite3_step-style result.
- Remaining rows.
- Reset/finalize and connection ownership.
Controlled comparisons
| Control | Interpretation | Hold constant |
|---|---|---|
| Same database copy, isolated connections | A change points to connection/statement/transaction ownership rather than stored content. | Use a copy and preserve schema plus repository generation. |
| Same operation, controlled environment | If the result follows one machine, account, volume, network, or device, environment matters. | Keep versions and identity explicit rather than comparing only the final message. |
Step-by-step investigation
The investigation should change one variable at a time and keep the original failing sample.
- First: Consume the result to completion or reset explicitly.
- Next: Use scope-based statement cleanup.
- Then: Avoid sharing one statement concurrently.
- Finally: Log statement state before transaction commit.
Closure criteria
Closure requires every statement reaches done, reset, or finalize on all success and error paths; then repeat the next lifecycle operation to detect stale state.
